The `nat` type was an alias for `unsigned int` with a comment saying
it was at least 32 bits. We keep the typedef in case client code is
using it but mark it as deprecated.

There are two ways to do retainer profiling. Quoting from the user's guide:
1. `+RTS -hr` "Breaks down the graph by retainer set"
2. `+RTS -hr<cc> -h<x>`, where `-h<x>` is one of normal heap profiling
break-down options (e.g. `-hc`), and `-hr<cc> means "Restrict the
profile to closures with retainer sets containing cost-centre
stacks with one of the specified cost centres at the top."
Retainer profiling writes to a .hp file, like the other heap profiling
options, but also to a .prof file. Therefore, when the .prof file is not
writeable for whatever reason, retainer profiling should be turned off
completely.
This worked ok when running the program with `+RTS -hr` (option 1), but a
segfault would occur when using `+RTS -hr<cc> -h<x>`, with `x!=r` (option 2).
This commit fixes that.

This will hopefully help ensure some basic consistency in the forward by
overriding buffer variables. In particular, it sets the wrap length, the
offset to 4, and turns off tabs.

Terminology cleanup: the type "Ticks" has been renamed "Time", which
is an StgWord64 in units of TIME_RESOLUTION (currently nanoseconds).
The terminology "tick" is now used consistently to mean the interval
between timer signals.
The ticker now always ticks in realtime (actually CLOCK_MONOTONIC if
we have it). Before it used CPU time in the non-threaded RTS and
realtime in the threaded RTS, but I've discovered that the CPU timer
has terrible resolution (at least on Linux) and isn't much use for
profiling. So now we always use realtime. This should also fix
The default tick interval is now 10ms, except when profiling where we
drop it to 1ms. This gives more accurate profiles without affecting
runtime too much (<1%).
Lots of cleanups - the resolution of Time is now in one place
only (Rts.h) rather than having calculations that depend on the
resolution scattered all over the RTS. I hope I found them all.

Now that the heap census runs in the middle of garbage collections,
the "CPU time" it was calculating included any CPU time used so far
in the current GC. This could cause CPU time to appear to go down,
which means hp2ps complained about "samples out of sequence".
I'm not sure if this is the nicest way to solve this (maybe resurrecting
mut_user_time_during_GC would be better?) but it gets things working again.

This patch makes two changes to the way stacks are managed:
1. The stack is now stored in a separate object from the TSO.
This means that it is easier to replace the stack object for a thread
when the stack overflows or underflows; we don't have to leave behind
the old TSO as an indirection any more. Consequently, we can remove
ThreadRelocated and deRefTSO(), which were a pain.
This is obviously the right thing, but the last time I tried to do it
it made performance worse. This time I seem to have cracked it.
2. Stacks are now represented as a chain of chunks, rather than
a single monolithic object.
The big advantage here is that individual chunks are marked clean or
dirty according to whether they contain pointers to the young
generation, and the GC can avoid traversing clean stack chunks during
a young-generation collection. This means that programs with deep
stacks will see a big saving in GC overhead when using the default GC
settings.
A secondary advantage is that there is much less copying involved as
the stack grows. Programs that quickly grow a deep stack will see big
improvements.
In some ways the implementation is simpler, as nothing special needs
to be done to reclaim stack as the stack shrinks (the GC just recovers
the dead stack chunks). On the other hand, we have to manage stack
underflow between chunks, so there's a new stack frame
(UNDERFLOW_FRAME), and we now have separate TSO and STACK objects.
The total amount of code is probably about the same as before.
There are new RTS flags:
-ki<size> Sets the initial thread stack size (default 1k) Egs: -ki4k -ki2m
-kc<size> Sets the stack chunk size (default 32k)
-kb<size> Sets the stack chunk buffer size (default 1k)
-ki was previously called just -k, and the old name is still accepted
for backwards compatibility. These new options are documented.

This has no effect with static libraries, but when the RTS is in a
shared library it does two things:
- it prevents the function from being exposed by the shared library
- internal calls to the function can use the faster non-PLT calls,
because the function cannot be overriden at link time.

The first phase of this tidyup is focussed on the header files, and in
particular making sure we are exposinng publicly exactly what we need
to, and no more.
- Rts.h now includes everything that the RTS exposes publicly,
rather than a random subset of it.
- Most of the public header files have moved into subdirectories, and
many of them have been renamed. But clients should not need to
include any of the other headers directly, just #include the main
public headers: Rts.h, HsFFI.h, RtsAPI.h.
- All the headers needed for via-C compilation have moved into the
stg subdirectory, which is self-contained. Most of the headers for
the rest of the RTS APIs have moved into the rts subdirectory.
- I left MachDeps.h where it is, because it is so widely used in
Haskell code.
- I left a deprecated stub for RtsFlags.h in place. The flag
structures are now exposed by Rts.h.
- Various internal APIs are no longer exposed by public header files.
- Various bits of dead code and declarations have been removed
- More gcc warnings are turned on, and the RTS code is more
warning-clean.
- More source files #include "PosixSource.h", and hence only use
standard POSIX (1003.1c-1995) interfaces.
There is a lot more tidying up still to do, this is just the first
pass. I also intend to standardise the names for external RTS APIs
(e.g use the rts_ prefix consistently), and declare the internal APIs
as hidden for shared libraries.

Most of the other users of the fptools build system have migrated to
Cabal, and with the move to darcs we can now flatten the source tree
without losing history, so here goes.
The main change is that the ghc/ subdir is gone, and most of what it
contained is now at the top level. The build system now makes no
pretense at being multi-project, it is just the GHC build system.
No doubt this will break many things, and there will be a period of
instability while we fix the dependencies. A straightforward build
should work, but I haven't yet fixed binary/source distributions.
Changes to the Building Guide will follow, too.
